The Mental Health Campaign at UWE is a free student led group passionate about all things Mental Health, our aim is to raise awareness of Mental Health and to challenge the stigma and discrimination that may be faced by students and staff across the institution.

As a campaign we welcome people with a lived experience of Mental Health Issues and hope that people can make friends with peers through our meetings, events and socials. We hope people can share their experiences, if they feel comfortable doing so to challenege perceptions in the public and student population.

Despite this we are not a counselling service and will not be able to help people who are currently affected and suggest they seek support on campus or off from:

 

 

In the 2016 / 2017 academic year we are looking to run a series of events including:

  • Coffee Mornings

  • Laughing Yoga

  • Alcohol free, Autism and Anxiety friendly activities and socials not related to Mental Health for people to meet their peers and make friends

  • Mindfulness Workshops

  • Fundraising for Mental Health Charities

 

We are also looking for your ideas, so please do get involved!
